1old serving tablepiece of wood, old window or any other thing you may have on hand and that might work as a base. I used an old serving table I got from Goodwill.
Blue and white chalk paintuse ⅔ paint with ⅓ water to create the white-washed look.
Rope or twine
Instructions
In a bowl mix 2/4 white paint with ⅓ water.
Give your whole tray a coat or 2 of white paint. This is especially important if yours has some design you want to cover, like mine did.
Let it air dry completely.
Add a couple drops of blue paint to your white paint and mix. Using a sponge give the tray another coat of paint and let it air dry completely.
Tie the thick rope in the corners of the tray to create the handles. If yours doesn’t come with holes or handles you can open small holes with a drill and then tie the rope through those holes.
Brush the tray with the abrasive side of the sponge to give it a rustic, worn-in look.
